Phone Number: (201) 337-8889

Here is what they are saying: I have been coming to this restaurant since they opened. Sometimes once a week, sometimes more since it's so close to work. They have Chinese food as well as Japanese food. The restaurant is in a strip mall that has dmv, staples, farmers market, Leslie's pool, etc. so it's a great place to stop and get a few things done at the same time.The inside is very clean, plenty of parking although some times you have to park farther. I usually get the sashimi lunch and it's always been great. Sometimes I will get the 3 roll special. Sometimes I stick with Chinese food with beef with broccoli or shrimp with lobster sauce. Everything I have had has been good.The staff has always been friendly.

2. JD's Deli & Grille

400 Ramapo Valley Rd Oakland, NJ 07436

Phone Number: (201) 644-0888

What they are saying: Love the small town love in this store as all the staff is very friendly! You can feel the comforting feel when you walk in as they are very much involved with the local sports teams. It is also the same with their customers as it seems most of them are regulars that return to see the wonderful smile on everyone's faces. The portion sizes are perfect with price range on their menu. I had their The DJ in a herb wrap and I was very satisfied. I also noticed that they carry some unique drinks worth checking out. From ordering to receiving the food was a short wait considering I came here with a group of ten people. They do accept credit cards for those concerned about payment options in a small business like this.

3. Cafe L'Amore

455 Ramapo Valley Rd Oakland, NJ 07436

Phone Number: (201) 337-5558

What they are saying: Best Italian food I have ever had and consistently tasty brick oven pizza! Been going for a few months and have been satisfied every time.

4. Oakland Pizzeria Restaurant

347 Ramapo Valley Rd Oakland, NJ 07436

Phone Number: (201) 337-3955

What they are saying: I always leave this place happy and full. The staff members are very friendly and helpful. The lunch special price is great including a soup or salad and a fountain drink. I usually get the farfalle Marco Polo and it's great every time. Everyone that I come here with always liked their dishes as well. The pizzeria is a good size with lots of tables. Its always clean and very welcoming. They do 7 inch 14 inch subs. I made the mistake and ordered the 14 one day and then realized it's way too much food. Ended up with enough leftovers for the next day. It's at the end of a little strip mall so parking is easy.

5. W's Grill

20 Elm St Oakland, NJ 07436

Phone Number: (201) 651-0005

What they are saying: Cannot wait to go back! We went on a Sunday and the wait staff was super helpful and very nice to work with. The appetizers are to die for, the empanadas melt in your mouth and the sauce is a perfect combo of spicy and mild. We go every other weekend now and have no regrets!!!

6. Luca Trattoria Pizzeria

20 W Oakland Ave Oakland, NJ 07436

Phone Number: (201) 337-3100

What they are saying: This place is much more than a pizzeria. BYOB, a nice dining room and a menu with pasta, salads, chicken, shrimp, veal and seafood entreès. Stopped in for dinner alone and enjoyed great service and a delicious Chicken Saltimbocca dish over spinach with a side of linguine. Service was attentive and friendly. Will definitely go back.

7. Frank's Pizza of Oakland

350 Ramapo Valley Rd Oakland, NJ 07436

Phone Number: (201) 651-0900

What they are saying: Franks pizza is the best in town. The crust has great flavor and texture and love the pizza varieties from there. I live 3 minutes away and sometimes I'm to lazy and just order delivery which is convenient as well. I'm really picky with pizza and tried another place in town and didn't like their curse or sauce at all. Frank's is where it's at. By the way if you want some pasta order the Shrimp Fettuccini Alfredo! Generous amount of Jumbo shrimp in the dish. The staff is great and always smiling. I met Angelo the owner as well and spent probably around 45 minutes talking with him.Great atmosphere, great staff, and great food.
